First up, let's get our hands used playing Diatonic structures to give them some muscle memory. This is a very simple shape so we can work up some killer speed. This shape is used quite a bit in DJent.

Play this as written and then let's walk it up and down the neck. Strike the first note, then Hammer On the rest. So ONE PICK STROKE, per every 3 Notes.

Let's focus on our THUMBLESS technique for a bit. If possible, try to do these without using your pick. Just use your left hand for hammering on and pulling off. If that's a bit much, put the pick back in to play as you work up your left hand.

DJENT OR NOT DJENT?


In this lesson let's take some cues from what has come to be known as "Djent", despite Misha's (Periphery) attempt to fight it, it's become a Metal Subgenre. Onward Djentlemen!

First up, let's get our hands used playing Diatonic structures to give them some muscle memory. This is a very simple shape so we can work up some killer speed. This shape is used quite a bit in DJent.
